Alt Tab doesn't have the flipping its just live pictures that u select. It should work. When I used Vista it was Windows+Tab. Vista Basic interface only happened to me when using certain programs. I don't know what the problem is.

The 3D flip only works with the Aero interface, not basic.

Just click on the desktop and go to personalise all the settings you need can be gotten to via that menu.

The only two apps that have had trouble and disabled the aero interface are java and MPC, if you have either on at the time of using the pc aero will be inaccessible.

Have you remembered to turn on transparency, it should be in window colour and appearance.

Be sure to get the Vista drivers from your video card manufacturer, this one stumped me for a while!
